I've checked this again. If I unload all wireless stuff, then modprobe *every* 
module in .../kernel/crypto/ it works. Both 2.6.24.7 and 2.6.26-rc9 load the 
driver and create an interface.
(2.6.24.7 isn't able to iwlist scan or associate, but that seems to be an old 
fixed issue.)

So it seems to me it isn't really a bug, more likely kind of inconvenience.


Again thanks for your help!
Stefan
